False! While you can post whatever selfies you want, consider if it’s something you would want your parents, grandparents, and the rest of the world to see. Those who want to cause you harm can use this picture as ammunition to make life miserable for you. And future schools and employers may see these photos as well.
I took a picture of Darius and me. I look really good in it but Darius does not like it. Can I still post it?
No!
Darius has the right to say he does not want a photo of himself posted, and you need people's permission to post a photo of them

T/F It's always a great idea to meet an online friend in real life.
False! Meeting online friends face to face can be risky because it's so easy for people to pretend to be something they're not online. It's safer to video message with someone first, but even that can carry some risks. Check with a parent to find out if it's a safe thing for you to be doing. They may want to sit in on a conversation before they allow you to do this even if they're coming along to meet the person.
You and your friend come across an empty beer bottle. Your friend thinks it would be really funny to take a picture holding it, like you just drank it. Is this photo okay to post?

T/F Cyberbullying has just as real consequences as normal bullying, including being kicked off sports teams and suspension.
True; cyberbullying is treated just as severely as real bullying.
